10 Reasons to Work with RZ

While you can find raving reviews about our agency on our website, Google, or Glassdoor—we make these reasons easily available for you to decide why you should work with us

  1. We understand your business and are experts in the industry. We have recruited hourly, corporate-office, management, culinary, and executive talent for over 2,400 restaurants, hotels, retail and hospitality companies. Not only do our recruiters have several years of experience recruiting in these industries but many of them have spent many years working in the hospitality industry. We live and breathe this!

  2. We fill open positions 98% of the time within the first 45 days. On average, a client receives their first candidate interview in 1.5 weeks and the longest placement has taken 2.5 months.

  3. We have the largest database of hospitality candidates in the nation. Our current internal proprietary database (that’s been developed over the past 7 years) has 903,000 restaurant/hospitality pre-screened candidates across the US & Canada, as of Feb. 2021. When working with our firm, we tap into this pool, on your brand's behalf. Notably, in late 2020 we also purchased an external global database of 200MM+ candidates, which we use for passive sourcing corporate office, management/executive, culinary and hourly roles. We’re really big on collecting the most data so that we can find the best talent for our clients.

  4. When you compare our services to other vendors, we tend to be more focused on quality over quantity when it comes to talent acquisition. Given our team's background in restaurant operations & recruiting, our team takes great pride in screening and vetting talent. This translates to our clients generally seeing less hires from us, however, candidates that do get hired tend to be better fitted for the job and moreover have longer tenure at the company they get recruited for 96.5% of the time. The turnover rate in the restaurant industry is over 65% and it's our mission to cut that in half, help our clients grow their companies, and stabilize the unemployment rate.

  5. We are one of the only agencies in this industry that has recruiters who recruit across every US state (and Canada).

  6. Our average client has been at RestaurantZone for over 4 years. This is an industry that has an average client life expectancy of 6 months to 1 year. 

  7. While we don’t rely heavily on external advertising/marketing (instead 80% of the time we leverage #3 above for recruiting), we do have enterprise accounts with many recruiting tools, sourcing technology, advertising & marketing platforms & databases. A huge value add for our clients is that they can tap into new candidate pools without the upfront money (instead you’ll get access to them via RZ). That translates into an instant value-add ($ savings) when you work with us.

  8. Our recruitment agency is the only company that leverages traditional recruitment strategies (e.g. cold-calling your competitors, employer referrals, our internal database) and newer recruitment strategies (technology, social media, and online marketing). Our company is the #1 top spender in new recruitment technology tools in our industry.

  9. The average client has referred at least two additional companies to work with RestaurantZone.

  10. RZ has grown an average of 123% per year for the last 5 years because clients continue to use our services and refer their business friends to our services. We are the #1 fastest-growing recruitment agency servicing the hospitality industry.
